Title:

e-IRI 05_02 - X-ray: Pathology (Adult Chest)

Description:

We recommend that you complete the Adult Chest introductory sessions before starting this course. These six sessions cover content relevant to image interpretation of the chest. They include Airspace Opacification; Interstitial Lung Disease; Nodules; Hila, Mediastinum and Heart; Pleural Conditions and Diseases; and Emergency, Lines and Instrumentation. The anatomy and common pathologies of these areas are discussed and related to their appearances on chest radiographs. Please note that while these e-learning sessions include information on how to write a report, they will not qualify you to become a reporting radiographer. On completion of these six sessions, a certificate linked to your KSF, CPD Now and (HPC) CPD may be printed or downloaded. For more information on accreditation, select the link below.
